If ever an artist deserved a deluxe retrospective, Mexico's Luis Miguel is the one. Miguel began his career as a teen pop singer in 1987 with "Soy Como Quiero Ser" and followed it up with "Busca una Mujer" in 1988. He has continually topped the Latin charts and has won two Grammys.

If ever an artist deserved a deluxe retrospective, Mexico's Luis Miguel is the one. Miguel began his career as a teen pop singer in 1987 with "Soy Como Quiero Ser" and followed it up with "Busca una Mujer" in 1988. He has continually topped the Latin charts and has won two Grammys.
